[QUOTE="35years, post: 5118094, member: 60822"] If you are at $41 an hour at the end of the current contract, and inflation is currently 6.81%... 3 annual raises to keep with inflation is $50 an hour. 5 annual raises to keep up with inflation is $57 an hour. Right now our current annual raises do not keep pace with inflation. So we will be making less in inflation adjusted dollars at the contract end date than we are now. I will most likely be retired so pension increases are #1 for me. Or the pipe dream....paid healthcare coverage in retirement. But don't look at $57 as anything more than just keeping pace. [/QUOTE]
